Indian police say they’ve captured a top-secret operative sneaking into their country on a “special mission to spy” on behalf of Pakistan’s intelligence agency.

It’s a pigeon.

On Thursday, cops in Punjab state said security alerts paid off when a resident spotted the white pigeon on the roof of his house and caught it. It had incriminating evidence — a Pakistani phone number and an address stamped on its body in red ink.

It also had a rubber ring attached to one of its feet. Indian police concluded the ring must have held the secret message the pigeon was carrying from Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence to undercover operatives in India.
